Heart Failure in Adults who had the Fontan Procedure: Natural History, Evaluation, and Management.
Article in Current treatment options in cardiovascular medicine, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
opinion statementFontan type palliations are a group of operations employed in patients with only one functional ventricle. These procedures take the normally parallel pulmonary and systemic circulations and place them in series to reestablish separation between the two. The Fontan circulation established by such operations is a unique, artificial physiologic entity. Although the Fontan circulation supports patients for decades, patients eventually experience progressive heart failure. As this growing group of patients reaches adulthood, there is a need for general cardiologists as well as adult congenital heart disease specialists to be familiar with the long-term sequelae of the Fontan circulation. The purpose of the present review is to summarize the limited available data on heart failure of the Fontan, its natural history, evaluation, and management.
